Profile Information
- About Me:
- My name is Gillian. I live in the midwest. I have been living with three complex chronic illnesses for over ten years. Despite my health challenges I have tried to live a 'normal' life. I am a folk singer, I have worked as a doula (labor coach), I have worked with children for the last 13 years. I am working towards a career in pediatric hospice care.
- About my Loss:
- I lost my soul mate and partner Sarah on October 14, 2009. She and I shared the same chronic/serious illness. She and I were both stable and she was NOT terminal when she passed. She had some trouble breathing early in the morning on October 14th and three hours later was gone. Doctors later determined that a blood clot had passed through her heart. Losing Sarah has completely turned my world upside down and I am trying to regroup.

"I lost my husband overnight that it happened so fast that I still can’t accept that he’s gone."
My Fathers Loss
Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child
I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

I lost the love of my life to a blood clot here in the Chicago area on December 19. I am completely devastated. I miss her every day. I am so sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. My mom right now has blood clots in her lungs and legs but they told us not to worry, she is breathing fine. Anything could happen though. Sarah was too young, much too young. If you need to vent this is a great place to do that. Thinking about you. (((((hugs)))))
